✨ NAME ✨

/close β€” the Profanity /close command, bestie. it closes windows. that's the whole job. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so picture this: you've got a million windows open, it's giving chaos, and you just need to shut something. /close is your girl. she closes windows.

Pass no argument at all and she closes the window you're standing in right now, the current one. no cap, that's it. πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

/close
/close <num>
/close <barejid>
/close <nick>
/close <roomjid>
/close <roomoccupantjid>
/close xmlconsole
/close all|read

πŸ’– ARGUMENTS πŸ’–

  • <num> β€” closes the window with that specific number. you know, the one from the window list. πŸ”’
  • <barejid> β€” closes the chat window with a contact, identified by their JID, if it's open. 🫢
  • <nick> β€” closes the chat window with a contact, identified by their nickname, if it's open. lowkey the same energy as above, different name tag. 🏷️
  • <roomjid> β€” closes the chat room window for that roomjid, if it's open. bye room πŸ‘‹
  • <roomoccupantjid> β€” closes the private chat for that roomoccupantjid, if it's open. the one-on-one side quest gets closed. πŸ’¬
  • xmlconsole β€” closes the XML Console window, if it's open. yes, that window. 🧚
  • all β€” closes every single window. no survivors. periodt. πŸ’€
  • read β€” closes all the windows that have zero unread messages. so if it's all caught up, it's out. if there's unread stuff in there, she stays. πŸ“¬

ngl bestie, notice how almost every one of these says "if open" β€” /close is not out here inventing windows that don't exist. if it's not open, there's nothing to close. that's the vibe. ✨
